2025-26 NBA Season

[TheMarathonContinues]

They want them to take back guys like Vessel and Fox but if the dark doesn’t involve Castle or Harper they shouldn’t do it.

Sounds like Lively got bad news and wants a second opinion.

Wemby, Castle and Harper. You can play around with anyone else in the trade. As hot as Fox has been and only reason why they're still winning, even him. Only thing that frustrates me about this is first game of the season, Wemby was playing like a Giannis and taking it inside a lot. Makes me think he'll go back to this 3-point games like last year and let Giannis handle the rim. I'm not sure Wemby will ever have an injury free year though. Giannis came in just like Wemby though. Let me find one of those famish pictures of him. Could probably mentor Wemby on strength building too.

Yeah but if I’m a Buck fan I want Castle and Harper or at least one of them lol.

I think the best chance of stopping OKC for the foreseeable future is Giannis going to the Spurs. No other team has the talent or youth to stand a chance against OKC. The Spurs have been playing well without Wemby. With a healthy Wemby, they can be the 2nd best team in the West, but still way below OKC. With Giannis too, they can go toe-to-toe with OKC for the next 5 years.

I wouldn’t say that’s a forgone conclusion, it would appear so on paper but OKC is a well-oiled machine now with championship mettle and experience. That’s also assuming SA doesn’t have to give up important pieces in return.
Giannis has expressed interest in going to NYK.
So we will see, if I were him, I’d stay East and NYK would be a good bet to make the finals if he went there…while the west….is wild. OKC, Nuggets, Rockets, Spurs, Lakers…thats rough.
I presumed the league would try to help get him to LA or NY bc they love big market teams.

I hear you. I do think the Spurs would create the best team over the next 5-10 years assuming Wemby stays healthy and they only give up one of their star guards in the trade.

But, like you said, the West is a dog fight, so going to the East might guarantee him a trip to the Finals, similar to what LeBron had. You might have a better chance beating an exhausted OKC team in the finals.

Weird schedule for the Rockets. They played Saturday night and don’t play again until Thursday

I was thinking the Hawks might go for Giannis. Guess not if in the AD sweepstakes. Detroit with AD would be interesting if he stays healthy.

It's sounding more and more like the Heat are the team to watch for Giannis.

Looking forward to the Spurs/Lakers game tonight. One of those god awful late west coast games, but it's on Amazon Prime.

This game will be on Amazon too.

Spurs putting up a challenge to OKC as deepest team in the NBA right now. Everyone working as a team.

They need Wemby back almost more for the defense. That 3-man-guard rotation of Castle, Fox and Harper is killing it.

If KJ doesn't win 6th man of the year, it's rigged.
